A button in the player's title strip, or E, opens the title's episodes
down the right of the picture, a season at a time, starting on the
playing season and scrolled to the playing episode. Each row has its still
(which plays it), its name, and whether it is playing, watched or part
way. The controls stay up while the list is out, and Esc closes it before
it leaves fullscreen or the player.
Every played episode, newest first, under Today, Yesterday, a weekday or a
date. A row shows the still (which plays it), the title (which opens it),
the episode, and where it stopped or that it was finished. Removing a row
resets that file to never played, with an Undo. History sits second in the
top bar, so Ctrl+1 to Ctrl+5 now run Library, History, Shares, Downloads,
Settings.
theme::space, theme::radius and theme::motion name the steps the UI is
drawn with. Literal gaps, corner radii and animation durations across ui/
now come from them, which folds a few near-misses onto the scale (10 and 14
point gaps onto 12, 10 point radii onto 12, 0.10 s hovers onto 0.12 s).
Page fades and toasts share one ease_out curve.
The watched and download buttons were laid out with with_layout(right_to_left,
Center), which takes every point of height the scroll area has left and
centres the buttons in it. Give the cluster the still's height instead.
Headings are set in Inter SemiBold, everything else in Inter Regular, so a
title sets the same on every desktop. Media and navigation glyphs (⏭, 🔊, ⛶,
★) come from the Phosphor icon font instead of whichever fallback font had
them. The CJK fallback still loads on its own thread and now joins the
bundled fonts instead of replacing them. The window carries the app icon
on X11 and Windows.
- a page fades in over 140 ms when the page changes, rather than cutting
- Ctrl+S in the player saves the frame, without subtitles, to
Pictures/proton-stream as "Title S01E04 12-34.png"
Tiles and episode stills light up under focus as they do under the
pointer and scroll into view when the arrow keys or Tab reach them;
Enter opens or plays. Global keys now check for a focused text field
rather than any focused widget, so / and Esc still work over a tile.
A toast can carry a button. Marking a whole title watched or unwatched
from its tile menu, and taking it off Continue watching, both lose
state the viewer may have wanted; each now says what it did with an
Undo that puts every changed watch state back as it was.
- the streaming cache's budget (1-16 GiB) is chosen in Settings, shows
what it holds, and can be emptied; a lower budget evicts at once
- hardware decoding can be turned off for a driver that shows green
frames, from the next file
- both live in desktop.json rather than the playback prefs shared with
Android, whose bridge record would reset them on every save. A file
that will not parse is never overwritten
The film keeps playing small at the left of the transport bar while
browsing, and is the button back to the player page. It sits beside
both rows of controls, so the bar is no taller for it, and renders at
thumbnail size four times a second rather than at the film's rate.
The title watched last, or with nothing part-watched one of the titles a
provider has a backdrop for, turning over once a day. Large art behind
the name, rating, genres, three lines of overview, and Resume / More
info.
- a finished batch of downloads, and a crawl long enough to walk away
from, notify through org.freedesktop.Notifications when the window is
not focused; once per batch, not once per file
- Ctrl+V with a share link outside a text field opens the add form
with the link in it
The up-next card shows the next episode's still with the seconds left
running round it, and the still itself plays it. The window opens at
the size and maximized state it closed at; position is left to the
window manager.
- right-click a library tile to play or resume it, mark it watched or
unwatched, download it, change its match, or take it off Continue
watching
- mpv's demuxer-cache-time is shaded on the seek bar, so it shows
whether a jump lands in what is already read ahead
- paused-for-cache shows a spinner over the picture and in the controls
- toasts replace the status line; keyboard shortcuts with a ? overlay
- library: filters, sort, row virtualisation, cached search, skeleton
tiles until the catalog loads, gradient placeholder art
- title page: season pills, episode rows with stills and one download
glyph, portrait poster, clamped overview, resume time in the button
- player: fading chrome, smooth scrims, subtitles lifted over the
controls, drag-following seek knob, OSD, speed menu, auto-skip
- settings as grouped cards with toggles and palette previews
- shares: confirm before removing, inline link validation, form kept
until the add succeeds; downloads scroll and show rate and ETA
- downloads pipeline four blocks; the next episode is warmed near the end
- a film behind another page repaints at 4 Hz, not its frame rate
Fixes B55-B60.
Type/shape/motion tokens live in theme.rs and every ui/ module reads them
instead of scattering literal sizes and radii. Appearance and playback
preferences move out of the shares page into their own Settings page and
nav tab.
The title backdrop's veil and fades were painted after the header was laid
out, so they covered the name and overview as well as the still — the text
was being dimmed by the thing meant to make it readable. All band layers
now go into the shape slot reserved before the header, behind the text.
